Defending Against Removal

Defending Against Removal refers to the legal process where an individual facing deportation attempts to challenge the government's decision to remove them from the country. This can involve presenting evidence, applying for relief options like asylum or cancellation of removal, and demonstrating ties to the community that may justify their stay. In the context of immigration and criminal law, it often includes addressing any criminal convictions that could trigger deportation. The goal is to establish why the person should remain in the U.S., whether due to family ties, contributions to society, or other compelling reasons.
